Two arts I have many friends in, and in fact tried to take but in both instances the closest classes were (at the time) several hours away. Though I have been thinking of taking Judo classes and possible participating in Tournaments, to improve my ground work, and if I took a Judo it would have to be Kodokan. Esp. since I now have a car and the 4 hour drive would be well justified :).
